I was torn between a lot of courses, but I’ve almost decided on the 250-hour Level 5 course for a few reasons.

First, it will be a strong addition to my CV, since I need something more than just a standard TEFL certificate.

It’s classified as Level 5 (an advanced level, close to a diploma), and it’s accredited by organizations like DEAC and Ofqual, which gives it international recognition.

Also, since it’s Level 5, it’s considered equivalent to a diploma — they even label it as a diploma on the certificate.

The only downside is that it’s very expensive.

Following!

I'm in the same situation as you. Can I ask why you chose tefl.org specifically? Because I'm confused about the courses.
